A FINAL MINI-PROJECT REPORT ON EXAMINATION AND ASSESSMENT SYSTEM FOR HUNI-VALLEY SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL Under the guidance of

Testing is a methodical technique of observing learners and ranking them on a classification system for the purpose of knowing how much the learner has learnt and recommends a remedy to diagnosis learning difficulties. Testing in education is generally done for the exclusive purpose of assessment, assigning grades to test-takers and ranking them with regards to their abilities. Traditionally, testing in most educational institution is paper-based and processing is done mechanically with manpower. Problems such as the high demand for invigilators corresponding to the increasing student population, manual distribution of test paper, excessive use of papers, lot of physical space to keep marked scripts, lot of time in processing and mechanically evaluating scripts, possible loss of records, time consuming and wearisome task of collating and searching large records, normally are the attributes of the present system. This project therefore proposes an efficient and accurate computer-based system to curb the numerous problems with the traditional paper-based examination administering system. The computerized test system comes with a relief, in that, objective questions are automatically generated and students’ responses are automatically marked and the result is displayed immediately the test is over. It is also recommended that for future further development, the security of the examination system should be enhanced through the introduction of biometric validation. This will fully mitigate impersonation of candidates taking the examination.
